Happy Easter!


What a wonderful Easter weekend! I am so glad that this is one of the holiday's that we can actually check-out at the store and say "Happy Easter" without getting a glaring eye or some "softer" response back. What a great time we had all week wishing everyone a Happy Easter.

We had a fun time with family and soaking in all the U.S. traditions of Easter. We are thinking they just might not be the same for us next year????

We had an Easter egg hunt in the dark with flashlights, lots of fun! One in the snow (pictured) and one in normal light and weather, although a bit cold. We tried to go to a Good Friday service, but it was packed out with standing room only. YEAH! We were thrilled about that. We pray that there were many that saw & understood what was done for them through that service. The Easter morning service we attended was powerful. We know that there is at least one more name in the Book of Life now, that's what Easter is all about!

This is truly one of our favorite times of year. To reflect and try to get our mind around ... again ... what was done for us. We cannot fathom it, but the love is overwhelming and certainly more than we deserve. It makes the fire within us swell even more to share this to anyone who will listen!

May His love be new and afresh to you. It something we just cannot take for granted, something that we are passionate about sharing with those that have never heard, and living out in our every day lives.

We know of a dear friends son that has turned his back on this belief. If you would join with us to pray for him today, there is a family's heart that is breaking for him and ours breaks too. We want Easter to be real to him like never before, we know that this can happen and prayer will make the difference!

Now we can say, "hope you had a happy Easter" and if we get a glum response, there's an opportunity to share!!!

HE'S ALIVE!
